Face tile installation materials mainly comprise concrete, cement mortars, an adhesive layer, face tiles, and a face tile sealing layer. Problems in any of the aforementioned parts result in a poor face tile adhesion quality. In this study, material information relevant to face tile falling was investigated, tests were planned and conducted to obtain construction variation factors, advanced sensing instruments were used to detect the health of concrete, and new materials were added to samples with low pullout values to increase the pullout values of face tiles. The results showed that the tensile strengths of the tiles were effectively improved. Thus, this method may serve as a reference to effectively reduce face tile debonding.
